Zebra Cake

Instructions

1. To start the zebra cake, preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a round cake pan.
2. In a bowl, combine the eggs with the sugar, yogurt, oil, and lemon zest or vanilla extract. Beat well until smooth.
3. Sift the flour and baking powder into the mixture and gently fold everything together until you get a smooth, lump-free batter.
4. Divide the batter into two equal parts.
5. To one half, add the 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder.
6. To the other half, add 2 tablespoons of flour, so both batters have the same consistency.
   The batter should be slightly thicker than a classic sponge cake batter. Mix well.
7. To pour the batter into the pan, use spoonfuls of each mixture. Start by placing one spoonful of plain batter in the center of the pan, forming a circle. Then add one spoonful of chocolate batter directly on top of the white batter. Continue alternating spoonfuls in the center until all the batter is used and the pattern looks like a target.
8. Bake for 30–35 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the cake—if it comes out clean, the cake is ready.
9. Let the cake cool on a wire rack before serving.
